Re: t480s/dock:40ah - USB HID devices not found with docking station

Hi guys,

I did a review of a Pro Dock for my T480s after CES 2018. The unit that I received for testing prior to CES was a pre-production model so it arrived without final detailed specs. I recall updating firmware and an audio driver, but at this point I see no model numbers on it as it was for review and labeled "Not for Sale". Therefore, I cannot be sure that it is the exact model that you are interested in.When I was testing it, it performed satisfactorily and all the ports worked. Other than that, I wish I could be more helpful. If I find anyone who also did testing and has more information to add I'll let you know.

Called Lenovo, and they supplied another dock. It worked for 10 minutes. So I called Lenovo again; a third dock would be sent at that point. Next day, 1 hour before the third dock would arrive, the second dock started working. At that point I thought it could be laptop which is malfunctioning, so I tried the first dock again.. no game. The third dock didn't have any issues at all.

There is no such thing as a Thunderbolt port. It's a USB C port capable of Thunderbolt Alternate Mode and this dock is using DisplayPort alternate mode instead apparently. I have no idea why didn't design just a single USB C dock with the other USB C port still open.
